As we get started, it soon becomes obvious that I'm terrible with a gun. Though that might be because I can only focus on the fact that my older brother is also my instructor. As Tobi, Four, thingy madoodah, comes past me his hand slips something into my pocket, it probably was an accident, but I look at it anyway. It says: Meet me in the pit, 9:30. T.E. So, he must've realised it between now and last night.

As that gave me an opportunity to talk to Four-Tobi , I could concentrate on shooting. And I hit the middle ring straight away, not bullseye, but still the middle ring! I look at everyone elses targets, no-one else has hit even the second ring!
"Good, but try not to hold your breath while you shoot, I recommend breathing in, aim, breathe out, shoot." I jump when I realise Tobi is right behind me, looking at how I shoot. "What I do is inhale, aim, exhale, fire." Huh, not a bad technice. I try it for myself and... Yes! I hit a bull's-eye!

For the rest of the day, we just focus on guns, shooting while running, avoiding bullets... Basically I'm just wait for 9:30. I can't wait to talk to Tobi again.

I'm in the form and I check my watch: 9:31. Shit. I race out of the form and into the Pit, which people seem to occupy from 9:30-3 pm and midnight to 2am, so no-one but Tobi is there. He turns around when he hears me and I run up to him and throw my arms around him. I breathe in his scent a scent I haven't smelled in so many years. Too many years.
"Cait." He wraps his arms around my head, just like he used to after a bad day. Comforting, but not digging into any welts or cuts. I found him. I found him! I FOUND HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
